TRUE VINTAGE 1950’S LADIES PLAY OUTFIT
TRUE VINTAGE EMERALD EVENING COAT – IN IRISH GREEN
TRUE VINTAGE 1950’S LADIES PLAY OUTFIT
Doesn’t this fit Stella perfectly? I think she’s a 1950’s vintage size 10, as is this lovely ensemble, Modern size XS.
Originally made by a California designer. Fully lined and with the nice tailoring you would expect. Here are the back buttons again, and a metal zipper right in the middle of the back waist. Pants with these fit very nicely. I wonder why they gave it up?
Don’t you love Fifties prints? DRUMS!!! How bizarre and fun. No pockets – just streamlined style. Love it that my vintage KEDS match it exactly!

PRETTY, GIRLY SPRING BLOUSE – TRUE VINTAGE 1950’S
Very sheer, floral print blouse with a bow tie (how old-style can you get?!) It also buttons up the back, as most better true vintage blouses did. This one is originally from Canada.
It’s so nice to have the plain front, without buttons. Pays to be very flexible so that you can button it yourself – but, it’s so nice to have someone to do that for you (a lover, a friend, a lady’s maid . . . . . . . . .)

FABULOUS TRUE VINTAGE 1950’S STRAPLESS DRESS WITH BEADED BODICE AND MATCHING JACKET
Here’s the flip-side of sweet – my favorite strapless number from the 1950’s. Rayon with beading and a killer fit.
I love to imagine where this one has or could have been. Smokey nightclubs come to mind. Maybe she was a singer.
It was a dark night in the city. The story you are about to see . . . . . . . ….. . .. . . . . … . . ..
